HellermannTyton launches cast resin cable joints

1 min read

The new line Relicon i-A Line premium SF armoured with PUR 33 Cast Resin (PUR33), is said to be suitable for jointing a wide range of cables.

It has a variety of applications including industrial buildings, power supplies in the ground, outdoors and underwater, in cable ducts and on public and private networks.

 

The line features RELICON’s ‘Safe Filling’ technology. The transparent double-chamber resin mixing pouch and cable joints offer the installer constant visual control of the mixing and filling steps while avoiding contact with the cast resin. The PUR33 resin offers a patented colour change that ensures the mixing process is completed correctly so the joints can then be submerged immediately after casting.

 

As well as the mixing pouch, the cable joints come with cable connectors and constant force springs with straight ends to ensure easy installation, and include all of the necessary earth continuity parts.

 

Cast resin joints are applied wherever cable and wiring connections are submersed or buried underground. As cast resin joints are exposed to high stress, the cured two-component cast resin delivers reliable long-term mechanical protection against external stressors as they are resistant to all environmental influences and are ecologically safe and suitable for long term applications.
